From the initial contact of the quoting process, arriving on time as promised, I recognised that this is a very professional company. They provided roof top photos showing cracked tiles and defects which I was was unaware of. A written quote was provided. After accepting their quote their communications were excellent. Their web page with all the info, colour charts and the ability to paint a house is excellent. The cleaning team arrived on time and carried out the job with minimal mesh. They cleaned up extra around the house. The painting team arrived a day or so later and again another excellent outcome. I would thoroughly recommend this company! Great job.
